HA! I was in those days but not anymore. Now its me arguing with a counter party. "My software works you are just doing a bunch of weird shit that its not designed to do." And they respond, "The person who sold me this said that it was going to be no problem and no matter what happens you are going to fix it without question." - Typing this physically hurts. LOL

I honestly think its every "engineering" style role. Whether sales engineer, solutions engineer, marketing engineer... etc. You're a high level problem solver in a field of expertise and absolutely necessary as a part of retention.


The other 25% of that is meetings ... and there is a 90% chance you are googling shit too.

In a sense they are my family indeed. Hey, it's not like I'm dissimilar compared to other millennials, with that generation pet ownership is at a record high, while having babies is at a record low. But indeed a good chunk of my paycheck goes to keeping them happy, healthy, and well taken care of. And damnit, they're worth every dime, nickel, and penny. No regrets!

Indeed, I'm one of the more lucky ones that was able to build enough credit, aquire enough savings, and maintain a reasonably paying job through years and years of effort and hard work to be able to own a home of my own. Well, "own" as it technically belongs to the bank until I finish paying off the mortgage, but I definitely am in no danger of losing it anytime soon.

Although I feel bad for the new wave of youngsters out there now, as hosing prices went from a very ridiculous to absolutely bonkers insane in just a matter of a handful of years.

I caught the final wave of that and got in at the last moment under 3% - I am sort of in the golden handcuffs because I will never see a rate like that ever again. I kinda wish I had chosen something with more of a back yard but I do have a dog part and it is pretty walkable.

Almost the same here, although mine sits a little above 3%. I'm sure prices will eventually go down again. In fact the prices now are artificially high as it should be steeply declining, and should have been doing so since late 2022. But thanks to "ghost houses" and private investment firms, it's going to be a little while before that bubble finally does pop. That, and the boomers are dying off in droves, although many of their houses are getting passed down to the next of kin or the next of the next of kin.

Its just nice to have squeezed into a house and squeezed into a car. I see many many of my friends and peers and they are struggling. I do feel a healthy amount of guilt over the advantages I have that others have definitely not been afforded. I think about the crazy directions my life has taken and no doubt the many more to follow. Dare to dream, dare to explore.
